Filmed entirely in VR.
People falling in love over long distances, online, and in video games isn’t anything new. Gil Shady told me the story of how he met his wife. They both played a game called Phantasy Star online. Gil Shady is some strange amalgamation of Marilyn Manson and Charles Manson. So if he can do it, you can too. This new HBO documentary follows a few different stories of couples and their journey through VR and how their relationships work. Gil Shady also told me once that he managed to impregnate his wife via a turkey baster he had filled up with semen and stored in the freezer. I’m tellin’ you, online relationships can be very interesting.
